Private Elvet Williams was captured in Crete in 1941. He was destined for imprisonment in the arbeitskommandos - work camps - of Europe. Isolated in hostile country, these camps worked their 'other ranks' prisoners long and exhausting hours. There was no energy left for forming Escape Committees, manufacturing disguises, false papers or money. And escaping involved not only breaking out of camp, but surviving the killing run for home across an enemy-occupied continent. But Private Williams was determined to escape - and to survive. ARBEITSKOMMANDO is the other side of the prisoner of war story; how ordinary men could still fight and overcome impossible odds to be free.... v angličtine, brožovaná, menší formát, 252 strán

The World Below

Spisovatel: Miller Sue, Bloomsbury 2001
Katalogové číslo: E8147

Cath Hubbard, a San Francisco woman in her 50s, returns to her grandmother's small Vermont house after the death of an aunt who left the property to Cath and her brother Lawrence. Cath had lived with her grandparents for a few years in her teens, after her mother's suicide, and now makes her wounded way back, in the wake of a divorce, to sort through her memories of her beloved grandmother, Georgia. This is the standard fare of American literary fiction: a life change prompting a search into the past. What is far less ordinary is Miller's placid, nuanced depiction of her protagonist's emotional journey. None of Cath's feelings can be easily predicted by the reader, but all of them ring true. She finds her grandmother's diary and begins to fill in the stories that Georgia had hinted at over the years. What Cath discovers in her grandmother's journal is a secret that has lost its power to shock; and that very wearing away of taboo adds to the poignancy of Georgia's restricted life. Her story unfolds against a backdrop of Cath's more immediate griefs and concerns and begins to recede as Cath's San Francisco life returns to claim her. Miller's prose appears effortless, but is like the gestures of a magician that conceal how the trick is accomplished. The result is a sage, continually surprising novel about finding peace of mind in a combination of habit, love, and self-determination.... v angličtine, brožovaná, 275 strán
